Nice to the right men, Rude to the wrong men. My experiences as an Indian woman..

So I came across a post on another sub where lndian mēn were saying how lndian womēn are getting more rude compared to womēn from some "other country" they travelled while ignoring the fact that those "other country" men are far better and make their own women feel safe and confident in those countries

Living in lndia as an lndian woman in such hostile, casteíst & mísogynistic environment any normal and sane woman would have their guard up. lndian m_n getting rude treatment shouldn't be surprising for them tbh. Infact I think, at present lndian women are still not rude enough and we end up giving them a lot more nice treatment than they deserve

My boyfriend is German and i don't even like to interact with lndian mēn still their mísogynistic and inceI posts end up on my feed. Majority of lndian s'ubs are same and reflect the inceI and mísogynistic environment of lndian society. At present, i'm seriously tired of muting the lndian subs

Being born as an Indian woman doesn't necessarily mean I have to accept everything about Indian society

I appreciate certain parts of Indian culture like the language, indian women attires, fashion, jewelry and aesthetics because i use them as well

But I would never accept caste system culture. Not accepting certain parts of Indian culture which are designed to control Indian women is perfectly fine imo

Neither would I accept forced marriage and arranged marriage culture, no one can force me to marry only men from certain society and take up their caste name. Just because i'm born in Indian society doesn't give anyone the right to dictate my life choices

I prefer to use my first name only because that's my identity as an Indian woman. I don't associate with Indian caste system culture and hence remove my last name wherever possible

My boyfriend is German so I like to learn and appreciate certain parts of his culture as well. I also like to educate people on Indian food, language and certain aspects of Indian culture which I personally use

Indian women who had or plan to have interracial marriage, how do you navigate & bridge the cultural differences?

Misogyny in lndian society especially with the caste and dowry culture used to discourage Indian women from finding love & marrying someone we truly vibe with. But I feel, now Indian parents and families are more open minded than they were a generation ago. Personally, I believe marriage decisions should be based on love, compatibility and connection irrespective of the country or ethnicity of the man

But in case of interracial marriage, there might be many family expectations and cultural differences on both sides. So i wanted to ask, Indian women who had or plan to have interracial marriage, how do you bridge the cultural differences?

In any interracial marriage, understanding each other culture is essential but one important aspect that most of us think about is parents and their acceptance. So i wanted to ask, Indian women who had or plan to have interracial marriage was it hard to convince your parents or they accepted normally?

Indian women who had or plan to have interracial marriage, how do you deal with judgemental relatives?

I believe marriage decisions should be based on love, compatibility and connection irrespective of the country or ethnicity of the man. But in case of interracial marriage, our parents might have their own thoughts. I think nowadays Indian parents are more open minded but beyond that, Indian marriage ceremonies involve so many extended family members and relatives. Often times, i've noticed that relatives tend to be more judgemental than our parents. So i wanted to ask, Indian women who had or plan to have interracial marriage how do you deal with judgemental relatives?

I got introduced to credit cards from my cousin who worked in the US and now returned to India. How many credit cards do you think is enough for various needs in India, and which ones do you recommend?
